[0045] FIGS. 1a and 1b show a frontal view of a device 10 according to the invention, wherein in FIG. 1a a closed position II is shown. Thereby it can be recognized that in the closed position II cover elements 20, 21 are closed and therewith the air entry through an opening 1 is at least partially avoided by the cover elements 20, 21. The opening 1 can for example in the open position I in FIG. 1b comprise the shown intermediate spaces of the device 10 such that with open cover elements 20, 21 the airstream is guided through the device 10. Likewise it is possible that an air entry area or a radiator grill of the vehicle is configured directly in front of the device 10 according to the invention as an opening 1. Further it is possible that the opening 1 comprises different opening areas, wherein each opening area is assigned to at least one cover element 20, 21 (and in the shown embodiment three respectively). Thus in FIG. 1 a first cover elements 20 (on the left side in vehicle direction) and second cover elements 21 (on the right side in vehicle direction) are shown, wherein each of the cover elements 20, 21 comprises cover means 20.2, 21.2. The cover means 20.2, 21.2 are air-impermeable and for example rigid, elastic or bendable for example as lamella, flaps or a roller blind in order to effect an air-impermeable closing of the opening 1. All cover means 20.2, 21.2 or cover elements 20, 21 are supported pivotable in a carrier 50. Therewith the cover elements 20, 21 can be transferred from a closed position II in which the cover means 20.2, 21.2 close the opening 1 or prevent the air entry into the vehicle by a turning movement in the carrier 50 in an open position I, in which the cover means 20.2, 21.2 are assembled or turned such that the air entry through the opening 1 is enabled. The open position I of the device 10 according to the invention is shown in FIG. 1b. In FIG. 1a further a middle bar 51 is shown which can for example be an integral part of the carrier 50, wherein behind the middle bar 51 a drive 30 is assembled. Further the middle bar 51 can comprise at least one cooling opening 51.1 for the drive 30 in order to effect a sufficient cooling by fresh air through which the cooling opening 51.1 is guided to the drive 30 to ensure a secure operation of the drive 30. The device 10 is thereby assembled for example in the frontal area of the vehicle for example in the (rear) area of the front end module of the vehicle. The frontal side of the device 10 is oriented to the vehicle outside or to the vehicle frontal side such that with an air inlet through the device 10 the air is guided into the inside of the vehicle. The following directions at the device 10 thereby correspond to the vehicle direction (for example the frontal side of the device 10 is adjusted in the vehicle direction and the rear side to the vehicle inside).
[0046] The figures la and 1 b show a frontal view of a device 10 according to the invention, wherein in FIG. 1a a closed position II is shown. Thereby it can be recognized, that in the closed position II cover elements 20, 21 are closed and therewith the air entry through an opening 1 is at least partially prevented by the cover elements 20, 21. The opening 1 can for example comprise the intermediate spaces of the device 10, which are shown for example in the open position I in FIG. 1b, such that with opened cover elements 20, 21 the airstream can be guided through the device 10. Likewise it is possible that an air entry area or a radiator grill of the vehicle directly in front of the device 10 according to the invention can be interpreted as an opening 1. Further it is possible that the opening 1 comprises different opening areas, wherein to each opening area at least one (and in the whole embodiment three respectively) cover element/s 20, 21 is assigned. Thus, in FIG. 1 a first cover elements 20 (on the left side in vehicle direction) and second cover elements 21 (on the right side in vehicle direction) are shown, wherein each cover element 20, 21 comprises cover means 20.2, 21.2. The cover means 20.2, 21.2 are air-impermeable and for example rigid, elastic or bendable, for example configured as blades, flaps or roller blinds, in order to affect an air-impermeable closing of the opening 1. All cover means 20.2, 21.2 or corresponding cover elements 20, 21 are assembled parallel to one another. The cover elements 20, 21 are rotatable in a carrier 50. Therewith the cover elements 20, 21 can be transferred from a closed position II, in which the cover means 20.2, 21.2 close the opening 1 or prevent the air entry into the vehicle by a turning movement in the carrier 50, into an open position I, in which the cover means 20.2, 21.2 are assembled or turned in a way, that the air entry through the opening 1 is enabled. The opening position I of the device 10 according to the invention is shown in FIG. 1b. In FIG. 1 a further a center bar 51 is shown, which for example can be an integral part of the carrier 50, wherein behind the center bar 51 a drive 30 is arranged. Further the center bar 51 can comprise at least one cooling slit 51.1 for the drive 30, in order to affect a sufficient cooling by fresh air, which is guided to the drive 30 via cooling slits 51.1 and therewith ensures a secure operation of the drive 30. The device 10 is assembled thereby for example in the frontal area of the vehicle, for example in the (rear) area of the front end module of the vehicle. The front side of the device 10 is aligned to the outside of the vehicle or to the front side of the vehicle, such that with an air entry through the device 10 the air is guided into the vehicle interior. The following directions of the device 10 thereby correspond with the vehicle directions (for example the frontal side of the device 10 is aligned in driving direction and the rear side to the vehicle interior).
[0047] FIG. 2 shows a device 10 according to the invention in an assembly position A, wherein in the assembly position A the cover elements 20, 21 are (at least partially) outside of the bearing acceptance of the carrier 50 for example completely removed. Accordingly, in FIG. 2 the openings 1 are completely released. The carrier 50 comprises different carrier acceptances 50.1, in which the cover elements 20, 21 are inserted for mounting and in which the cover elements 20, 21 are pivotably mounted in the operating position B. According to an embodiment at the outer carrier 50 outer or first bearing acceptances 50.1a and in the central area of the device 10 or the carrier 50 inner or further bearing acceptances 50.1b can be intended. These correspond to the corresponding bearing element 20.1 particularly to the outer or first bearing elements 20.1a, 21.1a and inner or further bearing elements 20.1b, 21.1b of the cover elements 20, 21. Further, the carrier 50 comprises support elements 50.2, wherein a first support element 50.2a is assembled such that it can centrally support a first cover element 20 in the operating position B, particularly in vertical direction. A second support element 50.2b is arranged such that it can centrally support a second cover element 21 in the operating position B. Hereby, the support elements 50.2 comprise at least a bearing means 50.5 and at least a support means 50.6. The bearing means 50.5 are configured such that they can be form- and/or force-fittingly connected with the central bearing elements 20.1c, 21.1c of the cover elements 20, 21 and these are possibly pivotably supported in the operating position B. The support means 50.6 comprise at least two functions: in the assembly position A they serve as a support and guidance for the cover elements 20, 21, particularly cover means 20.2, 21.2 for a movement in lateral direction (meaning in the direction of the longitudinal axis or turning axis of the cover elements 20, 21). Thereby, the cover means 20.2, 21.2 are on the support means 50.6 in case the cover elements 20, 21 are in their 90° position meaning in their open position I. In this case they are for example mainly parallel to the vehicle lower side in case the device 10, according to the invention, is assembled in the vehicle. Thereby, in the operating position B they can limit the maximum deflection of the cover elements 20, 21 meaning by reaching the 90° position or the open position I.
[0048] In FIGS. 3a and 3b exemplarily a cover element 20 is shown, wherein the subsequent embodiments apply at the same time for the first cover element 20 and for the second cover element 21. Initially, in FIGS. 3a and 3b it can be recognized that the cover element 20 (and therewith also a not shown cover element 21) comprises a cover means 20.2 (21.2) and at least a bearing element 20.1 (21.1), particularly an outer or first bearing element 20.1a (21.1a) and an inner or further bearing element 20.1b (21.1b). Further, centrally at the cover means 20.2 (21.2) a central bearing element 20.1c (21.1c) can be intended. Thereby, the bearing elements 20.1 (21.1) of a cover element 20 (21) can be configured differently from one another in their geometry. Thus, for example an outer or first bearing element 20.1a (21.1a) comprises a diameter which differs from the diameter of the inner or further bearing element 20.1b (21.1b). Hereby it is ensured that with a mounting the cover elements 20, 21 are inserted error-free and unambiguously in a correct orientation and in the provided bearing acceptance 50.1 of the carrier 50. Accordingly, an outer or first bearing acceptance 50.1a of the carrier 50 is adjusted to the configuration of an outer or first bearing element 20.1a or 21.1a and an inner or further bearing acceptance 50.1b of the carrier 50 is adjusted to the configuration of an inner or further bearing element 20.1b, 21.1b (for example in relation to the diameter). In FIG. 3b additionally an acceptance element 20.3 can be recognized, which enables in the operating position B a form- and/or force-fitting connection with the actuator 40.
[0049] In FIGS. 4a to 4c schematically the single assembly steps are shown in order to transfer the device 10 according to the invention from an assembly position A into an operating position B. Thereby, in a first assembly step, which is shown in FIG. 4a the cover element 20, 21 is initially angled and inserted into the carrier 50. Hereby, it has to be considered that no bending or deformation of the cover element 20, 21 is necessary. The cover element 20, 21 at least comprises a bearing element 20.1, 21.1 or an outer or first bearing element 20.1a, 21.1a and therewith connected cover means 20.2, 21.2. Initially, only the bearing element 20.1, 21.1 of the cover element 20, 21 meaning particularly the outer of a first bearing element 20.1a, 21.1a is inserted in the bearing acceptance 50.1, particularly an outer or first bearing acceptance 50.1a of the carrier 50. Thereby, the bearing acceptance 50.1, particularly the outer or first bearing acceptance 50.1a, comprises a free space 50.3 and a thereto (directly) adjacent restriction 50.4. The free space 50.3 is configured such that the cover means 20.2, 21.2 and also the bearing element 20.1, 21.1, particularly the outer or first bearing element 20.1a, 21.1a, is insertable. In contrary the restriction 50.4 is configured such that only the bearing element 20.1, 21.1, particularly the outer or first bearing element 20.1a, 21.1a, is insertable. Herefore, the restriction 50.4 comprises an extension or a cross-section which is smaller than the extension or the cross-section of the part of the cover means 20.2, 21.2 which is inserted into the free space 50.3 such that an insertion of the cover means 20.2, 21.2 into the restriction 50.4 is blocked. Therewith, the restriction 50.4 serves as a stop for the cover means 20.2, 21.2 like shown in FIG. 4b. For the assembly the cover means 20.2, 21.2 is particularly completely introduced into the free space 50.3 of the bearing acceptance 50.1 and subsequently the cover element 20, 21 is swiveled into the carrier 50 such that the longitudinal axis of the cover means 20.2, 21.2 corresponds to the turning or tilting axis in the operating position B. Subsequently, like shown in FIG. 4c the cover means 20.1, 21.1 is laid out from the free space 50.3 such that the cover means 20.2, 21.2 is particularly completely outside the free space 50.3 or the bearing acceptance 50.1 particularly the outer or first bearing acceptance 50.1a. Thereby, a further bearing element 20.1, 21.1, particularly an inner or further bearing element 20.1b, 21.1b, is introduced in a further bearing acceptance 50.1 particularly in an inner or further bearing acceptance 50.1b. In this position the cover element is pivotably or tiltably supported in the carrier 50 and can be transferred into its operating position B by rotation (for example mainly about 90)°.
[0050] In FIGS. 5a and 5b, the assembly of the cover elements 20, 21 is further described. Like it can be recognized here for the device 10 according to the invention a plurality of first cover elements 20 are intended, which for the assembly have to be arranged or are arranged in parallel to one another in the carrier 50, respectively. For a simplified assembly the carrier 50 comprises bearing means 50.5 and supporting means 50.6, wherein it can be seen in FIG. 5b that the supporting means 50.6 are suitable as a supporting area for the cover means 20.2, 21.2 and thereby a lateral shifting is simplified and guided (in direction of the longitudinal axis of the cover elements 20, 21). By this shifting further the bearing means 50.5 are pushed into the central bearing elements 20.1c, 21.1c provided in the cover means 20.2, 21.2 (configured as an acceptance).
[0051] In FIGS. 6a and 6b the previously described assembly is illustrated, wherein an introduced cover element 20, 21 is radially shifted along the longitudinal axis like shown by an arrow in FIG. 6b. Therewith, an inner or further bearing element 20.1b, 21.1b is shifted into a corresponding inner or further bearing element 50.1b of the carrier 50 and a central bearing element 20.1c is connected with a corresponding bearing means 50.5 of the carrier 50. This enables a pivotable or tiltable bearing of the cover elements 20, 21 in the carrier 50.
[0052] In FIG. 7 a perspective rear view on parts of a device 10 according to the invention is shown, wherein the carrier 50 is not shown. The device 10 according to the invention comprises thereby first cover elements 20 and second cover elements 21, wherein bearing elements 20.1 of the first cover elements 20 and bearing elements 21.1 of the second cover elements 21 are shown. Hereby, it can be recognized that the actuator 40 is connected on one side centrally with the first cover elements 20 (via receiving elements 20.3) and on the opposing side centrally with the cover elements 21 (via receiving elements 21.3). A movement of the actuator 40 particularly along a (partial) circular path (for example in a plane parallel to the driving direction) is therewith transmitted to the first cover elements 20 and to the second cover elements 21 via the actuator 40. At the same time, the first cover elements 21 are connected towards one another via the actuator 40 and the second cover element 22 are likewise connected to one another via the actuator 40. Since the cover elements 20, 21, particularly the cover means 20.2, 21.2, are pivotably mounted in the carrier 50 via bearing elements 20.1, 21.1 the movement of the actuator 40 along the circular path is transmitted in a turning movement of the cover elements 20, 21 (or each single cover means 20.2, 21.2). A single cover element 20, 21 comprises therewith a cover means 20.2, 21.2 and at least two bearing elements 20.1, 21.1 on opposing sides, respectively. For example comprises the single first cover element 20 a first or outer bearing element 20.1a and a further inner bearing element 20.1b on the opposing side of the cover means 20.2 of the cover element 20. The bearing elements 20.1, 21.1 comprise for example the outer or first bearing elements 20.1a, 21.1a, central bearing elements 20.1c, 21.1c and the inner or further bearing elements 20.1b, 21.1b. The inner or further bearing elements 20.1b, 21.1b thereby serve for the connection and bearing on an inner or further bearing acceptance 50.1b of the carrier 50. For the connection and/or guidance of the cover elements 20, 21 at the actuator 40 further acceptance elements 20.3 are intended, wherein fixing elements 40.3 of the actuator 40 for example are configured as mushroom heads and are arranged such that a lateral movement (meaning towards the outside) of the cover elements 20, 21 away from the actuator 40 is prevented. Further, behind the actuator 40 a drive 30 is arranged, which generates a mechanic (turning) movement, wherein the actuator 40 is moved along and the cover elements 20, 21 are driven for a movement between the open position I and the closed position II. The actuator 40 comprises cooling openings 40.5 in order to enable a cooling of the drive 30.
[0053] FIG. 8 shows an enlarged presentation of the device 10 according to the invention in a rear view. The cover elements 20, 21, particularly the cover means 20.2, 21.2, are pivotably mounted in the carrier 50. Like already described, herefore the cover elements 20, 21 comprise bearing elements 20.1, 21.1 connected with the cover means 20.2, 21.2. The bearing elements 20.1, 21.1 can for example be configured as bearing cones and correspond to corresponding bearing acceptances 50.1 of the carrier 50. Like shown in FIG. 8 thereby an outer or first bearing element 20.1a can be pivotably mounted or form fittingly connected in an outer or first bearing acceptance 50.1a of the carrier 50. In accordance therewith it applies for outer or first bearing elements 21.1a of the second cover elements 21 or cover means 21.2 and outer or first bearing acceptances 50.1a of the carrier 50 on the opposing side of the carrier 50. Further, in FIG. 8 central bearing elements 20.1c, 21.1c of the cover elements 20, 21 are shown, which are connected with cover means 20.2, 21.2 and are for example configured as acceptance elements for the bearing of a bearing cone of support elements 50.2. Thereby, a first support element 50.2a and a second support element 50.2b can be intended for a supporting of the first cover elements 20 and second cover elements 21, respectively, and by a central bearing element 20.1c, 21.1c of the cover elements 20, 21, respectively. The support elements 50.2 thereby enable an improved bearing of the cover elements 20, 21 and the carrier 50 and prevent further a bending of the cover elements 20, 21 and/or the cover means 20.2, 21.2 with a high contact pressure by the air entry through the opening 1. Further, in FIG. 8 acceptance elements 20.3, 21.3 of the cover elements 20, 21 can be recognized, which enable a form- and/or force-fitting acceptance and/or pivotable bearing at the first or outer fastening elements 40.1 of the actuator 40. Fixation elements 40.3 of the actuator 40 are thereby assembled such that a lateral movement (meaning towards the outside) of the cover elements 20, 21 or cover means 20.2, 21.2 away from the actuator 40 is prevented.
[0054] FIG. 9 shows an enlarged view of parts of the device 10 according to the invention, particularly a drive 30 of an actuator 40 and a connecting element 31. The drive 30 comprises a drive acceptance 30.1 in which a driveshaft 31.2 of the connecting element 31 is inserted. The driveshaft 31.2 is for example torque proof form- and/or force-fittingly connected with the drive acceptance 30.1 or is assembled in the drive acceptance 30.1. The drive 30 can for example be configured self-locking such that a movement or turning movement of the connecting element 31 can only be effected by the drive 30. The actuator 40 in turn is connected by a fastening element, particularly a second fastening element 40.2, with the connecting element 31 and therewith indirectly with the drive 30. The movement of the connecting element 31 to the drive 30 guides the actuator 40 in a movement, particularly in a circular path. Since the actuator 40 is connected via fastening elements, particularly first or outer fastening elements 40.1 with the cover elements 20, 21, the movement of the drive 30 is transferred to the cover elements 20, 21. The cover elements 20, 21 are pivotably mounted via bearing elements 20.1, 21.1 in the carrier 50 such that an operation of the drive 30 effects a turning of the cover elements 20, 21 in the carrier 50 and therewith a tilting of the cover means 20.2, 21.2 occurs wherein an opening 1 is released. Thereby, in FIG. 9 particularly the inner or further bearing elements 20.1b, 21.1b of the cover elements 20, 21 and the bearing means 31.1 of the connecting elements 31 are shown. By the bearing elements 20.1b, 21.1b the bearing of the cover elements 20, 21 in the carrier 50 or in a not shown central bar 51 occurs. The bearing means 31.1 are likewise supported in the carrier 50 or in the central bar 51.
[0055] In FIG. 10 a top view on parts of the device 10 according to the invention is shown. Thereby, a drive 30 is shown wherein a connecting element 31 is driven by the drive 30. Thereby, the actuator 40 comprises a fastening element particularly a second or inner fastening element 40.2, which is connected with the connecting element 31 or pivotably mounted in the connecting element 31. The second (or inner) fastening element 40.2 is thereby adjusted mainly parallel towards the orientation of the drive 30 or of a drive acceptance 30.1 or the bearing means 31.1. Further, the actuator 40 comprises a further fastening element, particularly a first or outer fastening element 40.1, which is connected to the cover elements 20, 21 or pivotably mounted in the cover elements 20, 21 (meaning in at least one acceptance element 20.3, 21.3 of the cover elements 20, 21). The first (or outer) fastening element 40.1 is thereby configured rigid and/or torque proof with a second or inner fastening element 40.2 such that a movement of the actuator 40 at the same time relates to the second (inner) fastening element 40.2 and to the first (outer) fastening element 40.1.
[0056] FIG. 11a and FIG. 11b show a schematic rear view of a device 10 according to the invention, wherein in FIG. 11a an open position I and in FIG. 11b a closed position 11 is shown. It can be recognized that the drive 30 is assembled in the center between a first cover element 20 and a second cover element 21. The cover elements 20, 21 thereby can be configured as a roller blind. In an open position I therefore the cover elements 20, 21 are wound up and are turned into a closed position II by rolling down. This is achieved by a movement of the drive 30 which for example transfers the turning movement via an actuator 40 to a shaft (for winding up up the roller blind) of the cover elements 20, 21. A turning in a first direction effects therewith a winding up up and a turning in the second direction a rolling down of the cover means 20.2, 21.2, which comprise for example an elastic material and/or textile. In order to enable a reliable transfer, particularly an angled transfer with an angular offset, thereby the actuator 40 is configured as a joint 40.4, particularly as a cardan joint.
[0057] In FIG. 12 schematically method steps of an assembly 100 according to the invention are shown. Thereby, in a first method step 100.1 a cover means 20.2, 21.2 is inserted deformation-free in a carrier 50. In a second method step 100.2 a bearing element 20.1, 21.1 is transferred in a bearing acceptance 50.1 of the carrier 50 connected with the cover means 20.2, 21.2. Subsequently, in a third method step 100.3 the cover element 20, 21 is transferred from an assembly position A in an operating position B by an axial shifting.
[0058] The previous description of the embodiments describes the present invention only within the scope of examples. Naturally the single features of the embodiments as far as technically meaningful can be freely combined with one another without leaving the scope of the present invention.
